Description

Upon testing out one of the 2.4 snapshots a few weeks ago, I was unable to get network connectivity with a gateway that is outside the wan subnet. After some research and help from the FreeBSD community, it would seem that the route syntax for non-local gateways has changed in FreeBSD 11.0

Working commands on 10.3:

/sbin/route add -net <gateway ip>/32 <wan/failover ip>
/sbin/route add default <gateway ip>

Working commands on 11.0:

/sbin/route add -net <gateway ip>/32 -iface <wan interface>
/sbin/route add default <gateway ip>

As you can see the slight change in the syntax for 11.0, if this change could be updated in pfSense 2.4 to allow the "Use non-local gateway" option to work again, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
